Synopsis

In his previous life, Yang Fan worked himself to the bone just to survive. In this life, his greatest dream was to be a lazy couch potato. He didn’t want to be King of the Pirates, but rather the man of the King of the Pirates.

What he hadn’t expected was that his female lord would be so adorable, making it well worth getting more exercise so they could have several equally adorable insect eggs.

And so his greatest dream became keeping his female lord well-fed and having insect eggs.

“Oran, the baby and I miss you so much. When are you coming home? Look, I miss you so much I can only stomach nutrient supplements.”

Oran had left barely half an hour ago. He held back and held back, until at last he could hold back no longer and crushed a corner of his optical computer.

Oran had always thought his male insect was a real oddball. He did most of the things female insects usually did at home, encouraged Oran to do whatever he wanted, and spent all day asking for hugs. He was even more delicate than their little one.

Then Oran received word that enemy troops were attacking their home. He rushed back at top speed, only to find his male lord sitting on the sofa with their little one in his arms, while five enemy insects lay pinned beneath his feet.

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere turned awkward for a moment.

“If I say our little one showed off his incredible power and beat them all, would you believe me?”

“Heh.”

It's so good! The ending is smooth and logical, but I don't know if the epilogue is unfinished or if it's an open ending [what?]. Also, Oran and Yangfan, have you forgotten about Zai Zai? Where did they all go? 😅!!!

It's quite good, the plot is good, and the writing is good too. The themes of insectoids and post-apocalyptic worlds are quite novel. The whole story is quite sweet, with not too many angst-filled moments. What I regret a little is the ending of the main story. Although both dying means a happy ending, I would have preferred a more fulfilling ending where they are happily together.

It's good, and the transitions between parts are pretty good, but there are some parts that feel a bit off. Why is Yang Fan so trusting? When I saw him believe that the doctor would use his soul power to eliminate the virus, I wondered what if there was a twist and he was deceived by the doctor? Would the ending be another tragedy?

The story is quite good. The early part focuses on romance and the plot is relatively gentle. After the protagonist enters the battlefield, the plot becomes more intense. The ending in the insectoid world is very touching; the protagonist sacrifices himself to save everyone, and the other protagonist, after three years of restoring order, goes to be with him.

The story is nuanced and the plot is engaging. It reflects the realities and helplessness of life from a third-person perspective. Yang Fan's sacrifice and rebirth, his encounter and reunion with Oran, create a story that leaves you feeling heartbroken and tragic.

I finished watching it at 12:35 AM on December 12, 2024. I personally thought it was great. The extra chapters could be longer. Maybe I'm just not good with words, so I don't know how to describe my feelings. Anyway, just a few words: Great! Recommended (If you don't like this kind of thing, you can skip it, but you can still get a general idea, hehe). So, here's wishing Yang Fan and…

After the apocalyptic boss (Yang Fan) dies, he transmigrates into the body of a male insectoid (Yalant) and marries a female insectoid legion major general (Oran). Yang Fan ❤️ Oran Yang Fan became a pharmacist and developed a mental energy-relieving potion. She gave birth to a male insect named Michen, nicknamed Xiaobai.

It's pretty good, and I found it very interesting. It really shows the cycle of cause and effect! The ending is both good and bad, sob sob sob 😭

Well, overall this book is quite good, but putting aside the small plot hole in the main text that wasn't filled (though it doesn't affect the reading experience), the ending wasn't very happy. This is the first time I've seen such an ending in a novel with an insectoid theme. The ending was unexpected—both characters died. Fine, they died.

It's seriously amazing! 😆😆😆 The concept is brilliant, the plot is fast-paced, it has everything you'd expect, and I'm completely hooked! Will the author release any more side stories? 🤔🤔🤔
